A particle which oscillates
around a point of equilibrium, subject to a force proportional to the
distance to this point, has a simple harmonic vibratory movement. A
spring which is made to vibrate by a force which distances it
from its point of equilibrium is a good example of a harmonic vibration. You can study its movement in the following
visual. Stretch the spring with the help of the mouse. |
